and it could be found along the bank of the
river for at least a hundred yards below the
mill. But now this is all changed. In or

DEAR FRIEND:-We arrived here this az

ney being tough one. Walter got lost the
day we left Dayton and crossed the river al
the Brunswick mill. This unfortunate mis-
take caused him to follow the road 10 Pine
Nut Valley for about ten miles, when he
met coal burner who towed him to Carson
City. Jay Eye See and Goldsmith MAID
were so exhausted on reading Carson that
we decided not to attempt to cross the
mountains to the Lake, but to try the eli

Martius Ranch, which am told is only 90
mikes from Dayton. This statement | am
sure is incorrect. as have walked all the

bite. 1t was not by a FISH, however; it was

that Herman managed to get away with this
morning.
Walter desires me to request you to send
him half dozen pieces of quarter inch
wire of the best quality, ten feet long, for
use on our return, as the whips purchased in
this vicinity do not seem to have the desired
effect on Jay Eye See.

A Customer Nailed for Life.

The following is related of Abbott
Lawrence, the Boston merchant: A
country trader bought a few yards of
cloth at ten dollars per yard at his
store. On measuring the goods at
home they ran short a quarter of a
yard. The trader was almost afraid to
speak of so small matter to so great
a merchant. On his next visit to Mr..
Lawrence's establishment, however,
he plucked up courage enough to say:
"Mr. Lawrence, when was here afew
months ago | bought a few yards of
broadcloth. Eyes, at ten dollars per
yard" According to my measure
ment it fell short quarter. Fell
short quarterP That will never do;
it should have overrun a quarter.
Turning to his book-keeper, he said:
"Credit this man with half yard of
our best broadcloth." That customer
was nailed for life. Dry Goods Ctron-

vance the interests of the whole people. It is not
however a blind follower, but is always ready to
denounce Republican wrong doing, either in high
or low places.
THE INTER OCEAN has always maintained that
the Notion is under obligation to the soldiers OF

it from armed treason, which it can never repay,
and, consequently, has advocated the establish
